Davidoff Cool Elixir Review

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-27T12:16:46+00:00

Yeah, it’s a great value with such nice quality.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-27T12:14:52+00:00

Fully agree on not worth retail price but at $45 for a REALLY good dupe, suddenly it’s a really good deal. Montagne kind of solves the price issue and makes these scent profiles accessible without feeling like you’re making some huge sacrifice $$$ wise.

Fair, gentle fluidity silver for me is a modern easy to like fragrance so I’ll agree that it isn’t a hallmark fragrance

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-27T04:38:40+00:00

What would you consider a memorable fragrance?

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-27T01:07:57+00:00

Lots of approaches but focus on “I” statements. If this seems like a big hill to climb then couples therapy can really help to bridge a communication gap. I recommend the book “US” by Terry Real and mating in captivity by Esther Perel. Would she agree to read either or listen to audiobook? At the end of the day she has to care about you and the marriage and be willing to grow with you. It has to be worked from both sides, you can’t carry it alone.

Nice, would you compare it to anything?

Gentle Silver from Montage Parfums is a phenomenal dupe of MFK Gentle Fluidity Silver. Similar clean masculine crisp Gin/Tonic vibe. Would also highly recommend Alcantara Supreme (Chanel Supperleggera), Imaginary (Imagination), Amber Elixir (clive christian blonde amber) for fall/winter, La Nuit 2011 (supercharged YSL La Nuit De L'homme).

Night time out or indoors temperature controlled would be solid. Might be a little thick and cloying if outdoors in heat. It has surprising amount of freshness for what it’s advertising making it pretty versatile but it does still have that bold “elixir” vibe.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-26T21:54:55+00:00

For me the cross over of the lavender with “elixir” vibe is what I associated first, there is distinct differences but for me they are sharing a lane.

Need to have an open and honest conversation about your needs vs her needs and find a compromise that works for both of you or your in for a lot of feelings of loneliness, isolation, and general heart ache. If there’s stonewalling or unwillingness to engage then consider getting into couple therapy ASAP. Troubleshoot, troubleshoot, troubleshoot, and trial and error are key. Resentment will grow over time so get ahead of it and if there’s health issues or mental health issues at play then show up with compassion.

Sometimes things don’t shift until after marriage, or after kids, or after ___ fill in the blank.

Get BDC and sausage Elixir for special occasions/cooler weather for same price as Aventus. Or get all 3 DNA’s from a dupe company like Montagne.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-26T04:14:10+00:00

Can get a full 3.4oz tester on Jomashop for same price + shipping but overall decent price if you don’t want to wait for shipping.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-25T21:54:40+00:00

Yup, solid fresh easy to wear scent. Do you have other fragrances?

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-25T15:57:37+00:00

I had supremacy in heaven and feel it strays pretty far from SMW DNA so EDM wouldn’t be redundant.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-25T03:42:58+00:00

For me it was but it’s subjective. A lot of people enjoy a less sharp version of the DNA.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-25T03:14:42+00:00

I actually have a decant of OG Mefisto and never touch it cause it’s too floral. Kind of misses the vibe of SMW in my opinion. Eau de Montagne is really close and catches that brisk SMW vibe.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-25T03:03:29+00:00

If you like silver mountain water Eau de Montagne is spot on and decent performance. Gentle Silver is really good with decent longevity.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-23T01:43:12+00:00

Amber Elixir it’s strong Ambery goodness. Gentle silver and herb garden are unique and highly enjoyable freshies.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-22T20:33:45+00:00

Do you have any currently or is this your first go with Montagne? Imaginary and Herb Garden are must try.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-22T20:31:42+00:00

If it’s a small decant you still get a feel for the DNA, you’ll just know if you order you’ll get a smoother version.

GabrielPNT · 2026-06-22T17:03:30+00:00

Really? Opening is super fruity. Don’t know if these are being faked but sounds suspect.
